The present invention relates to a field of aero engine, and more particularly to a four-shaft turbine panoramic temperature measuring device with a circulating water-cooling device.

Description of Related Arts

During the development of aviation industry, the aero engine is always the bottleneck that restricts the domestic military airplane. Under the modern engine development background of higher Mach number and higher thrust-weight ratio, temperature is an important measurement parameter in the engine. In the hot flow channel of the engine, the turbine hot-end components (such as rotor, stator blade and turbine casing) have the highest temperature and are most easily fractured, thereby causing the engine failure. Thus, accurate measurement of the surface temperature of the turbine hot-end components is particularly important for monitoring the condition of the engine and improving the reliability thereof. In the modern turbine temperature measurement technology, radiation temperature measurement is widely applied, which mainly uses the infrared radiation temperature measuring device to collect, convert, process and transmit the surface optical signal, and finally restores the actual temperature data. There are many institutes researching the infrared temperature measuring device. Generally, the radiation temperature measuring device is arranged outside the engine casing, and the turbine blade surface is observed through the casing hole; the driving system drives the temperature measuring device to move, so as to scan different position points of the blade surface; and the data collected through scanning will be transmitted to the data collecting and processing system. Conventionally, most of the infrared radiation temperature measuring devices for the turbine are only capable of single drive scanning, but cannot complete scanning and temperature measuring of multiple components inside the turbine at the same time. Moreover, the temperature of the working environment of the turbine components is high, while most of the temperature measuring devices are not equipped with the active cooling structure to ensure the measurement reliability. Based on the above situation, the present invention provides a self-cooled four-shaft turbine panoramic temperature measuring device, which realizes temperature measurement of multiple hot-end components inside the turbine.
